Ok; I'll prepare a patch implementing this solution. I'll post it in one
day or two. Only one question: how to pass the SDT frequency to
libavformat? Shoul I add a new field to AVFormatContext?

Well, I'll post patches for both the two solutions so that M?ns can
chose the one he prefers

I also think time is more correct.
The current code actually tries to control the SDT transmission period
(time), but it does so by assuming a constant bitrate for the TS (if I
read the code well).
Maybe we can do something better... I'll have a look.
